I suddenly made these drawings in some five minutes in 1993 and was wondering a lot as I felt I had drawn some kind of self-portraits telling about my life until those days.
It bothers me these figures lack their faces... First I thought it could suit as we are living in times when people often stay anonymous... and the faces and persons don't interest anybody... But then I got this idea to make these pictures bleed with some old nail polish of mine...
Statues and sculptures are killed by smashing their faces... An abortion may lead to some kind of shame and women losing their faces... and their hearts bleed who knows how long - maybe during their whole lifetimes... and maybe some feel they have some blood in their hands...
ABORTION DISASTER
My old nail polish on copies of old ink drawings from 1993 and made on water color paper size about A5.
ABORTION MADHOUSE
Copy of a pencil drawing on copy paper with pieces of photo of a fetus.
Abortion Disaster and Abortion Madhouse are made in 2007.
I started my blog-writing with a blog about abortion in 2009. However, I have ended in writing that blog as abortion is such a complicated matter. However, I have not closed the blog and its address is abortti.blogspot.com and it is in Finnish. I even opened a Twitter account by the name IrmeliGrunau @ abortti then, but never wrote any tweets. However, it seems impossible to close that Twitter account even if I want it to disappear. But it doesn't disappear and follows me maybe into eternity...
You for sure have understood I have experienced an abortion of an invalid baby, but I also have given birth to a dead-born baby-girl. So for my part I suppose I know what I am talking about even when saying I regret even the abortion of an invalid fetus that can damage a woman so very badly. Abortion is not only a medical procedure and an operation of the body of the woman but involves all kind of relationships and feelings to the father of the child. And a fact that still remains is that the whole lives of women are involved with the giving birth to children of this world and the lives of women without children have the problems of its own and might become complicated.
A fetus is a person from the moment of its fertilization as it has its own DNA from that moment. That is why these aborted persons can never be made to disappear and an abortion is a murder. If you believe in what The Bible says then all people will once raise from the dead. In that case even all the aborted children, miscarriaged and dead-born babies will be among or with us...
Let's remember all aborted children and all women who regret their abortions and feel a lot of pain because of that as even those who have lost their unborn children in some miscarriages or just newborn babies in some ways. Let's even remember all women and men who don't have children of their own even if they liked to have.
